    Dhaka: Bangladesh will observe Aug 5 as ‘Mass Uprising Day’ to mark the movement that led to the ouster of the Sheikh Hasina govt last year. The interim govt, however, on Sunday withdrew its decision to dedicate Aug 8 to celebrate the formation the Muhammad Yunus-headed caretaker administration, following criticism from various quarters. Yunus took charge as chief adviser on Aug 8, three days after the fall of the Awami League govt and former PM Hasina resigning and fleeing to India. Following a meeting of the council of advisers, chaired by Yunus, chief adviser’s press secretary Shafiqul Alam said, “There will be no special celebration for Aug 8 as there will be no ‘Notun Bangladesh Dibosh (New Bangladesh Day)’.”
